New to the forum, I’m looking at starting up on my own but I find it hard to price work as I don’t really know the going rates had a look online and the prices seem really high? I live and work in the north of England.
what would be a average price per day and hour?
and do people charge for the job or the time ie. if you was to put down lights in would you charge aflat rate for 1 light say 50 per light supplied and fitted would you charge 200 for 4 or would you just charge for half a day rate plus cost of the light
Thanks
 
All depends on your business model for Small jobs easiest way imo is just to bill for time + materials. Very little can go wrong this way.

Big jobs might be worth taking the time to do the whole thing on a 'price'. But it can take a few jobs to get the pricing right
